"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.""Psalm 91:1-2

"Be what you would seem to be--or, if you'd like it put more simply--Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise." from "Alice in Wonderland"

I know Wales is known as Cambria. Is Cumbria another spelling? Another area? An area within Wales?

Stunning.

My daughter, the snot, got to go there but her pictures are nothing like these. *lol*

Compassion is the sometimes fatal capacity for feeling what it is like inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too. - Frederick Buechner

Cumbria is in north west of England between the Hadrian Wall and the north of Wales. Most of its area is called the Lake District and is a National Park which is one of the most beautiful places of England.

It is really amazing the beauty of raw nature.

Thanks Gwynhwyvar for sharing those. Brought back good memories for me.LOA

I am glad that everyone has enjoyed the pictures of Cumbria. I only wish I was the one that had taken them, but then again, I have never been there. I can only dream. The person that sent them is in a group called Atlanta Celts - and that is the place where I found out about Celtic Radio. Again, I am glad y'all have enjoyed them!

Some of the scenes remind me a bit of northern Ontario -- the water, the wide open spaces. Only without the feeling that there are faeries nearby. Whoever the photographer is must have known what they're doing, despite the disclaimer on the website. Simply gorgeous. I'm putting one of them up as my wallpaper too.
